he left 150,000,000 new york aug 27 fifty million dol lars of russell sage's estate has mysteri ously disappeared according to the ap praisal that was filed to-day with surro gate beckett the estate was appraised at a little more than 504,000,000 and it is positively stated by those who were most intimate with the late millionaire that it was worth more than 113,000,1x10 one theory advanced by those familiar with the estate is that the values fixed j upon the securities and other taxable things was purposely made low in order to reduce the state tax charles p dillon who was appointed by the court to appraise the estate tiled to day's report it states that the whole tax able value was 4,x_-,__-.91 and that of this sum mrs sage the widow gets $(_, 778,800 the balance 650,000 going to the twenty-nine lesser legatees this means that the state of new york will get a total of 867,538.01 mrs sage paying the bulk of it or 635,038.01 and the twenty-nine other legatees the small difference surrogate beckett during the afternoon affirmed the report but the question that wall street asked when the news of the appraisal was flashed over the wires was what has become of the other half of the estate dwigbt uraman of 25 broad street a confidential adviser of mr sage said to dav the figure at which they have au praised the estate is ridiculously low l can hardly believe it to be true from my own intimate knowledge of mr sage's af fairs it should be twice as much 1 saw the last trial balance of mr sage's affairs a utile wbiie before he died it was his habit to show me these i know that for the preceding year his income was over 6,000,000 a good deal over it this tells the story without words really i am astonished at the figures quoted to-day mrs palmer reaches mattapoisett by

! campaign for the presidency and it was all the harder because it came from a quarter where he expected only kind words and the glad hand instead of what in sporting circles might be called a knockout the attack that has staggered mr bryan came from theodore p shonts president of the Chicago & alton and the clover leaf railroads in a form al statement given to the public and addressed particularly to the railroad men of the country he utterly repudi ated the nebraskan as a presidential candidate and he made that state ment public when the bryanite man agers were sitting at their desks and hoping they could in a day or two announce to the world that mr shonts was on their side it seems to me he said in his state ment thut every intelligent and thought ful railroad man from president to sec tion man should vote and work for tha election of the man who publicly stands for everything thut is vital to the well being of railroads and railroad men meaning thereby william h Taft blow to bryanites it is no secret that the bryan managers expected an entirely different utterance from mr shouts it is one of the things notorious throughout the country tfiat th rn is no love lost between the railroad aa and the present railroad administration or the administration when mr Taft waa la part of that institution personally i and because of their differences over the j panama

which is about what the president did j to the railroader in a manner of speak . ing upon a certain well remembered ! day two years ago and as mr Taft wa i a party to the rending and the devouring it was a natural presumption that mr shouts ill feeling extended to him expected different attitude it was upon the well known enmity off shonts for the president and his former secretary of war that the democrats counted when they privately n__ounce<l ! that shonts would be for bryan just wait has been a whisper around ! headquarters ever since bryan was nomi ! nated and we will show you some rail

waited and yesterday came the shonts statement after it was out the bryanites wished that he had waited until after election they did not expec it and they were hurt the railroader was in Chicago

he left 150,000,000 new york aug 27 fifty million dol lars of russell sage's estate has mysteri ously disappeared according to the ap praisal that was filed to-day with surro gate beckett the estate was appraised at a little more than 504,000,000 and it is positively stated by those who were most intimate with the late millionaire that it was worth more than 113,000,1x10 one theory advanced by those familiar with the estate is that the values fixed j upon the securities and other taxable things was purposely made low in order to reduce the state tax charles p dillon who was appointed by the court to appraise the estate tiled to day's report it states that the whole tax able value was 4,x_-,__-.91 and that of this sum mrs sage the widow gets $(_, 778,800 the balance 650,000 going to the twenty-nine lesser legatees this means that the state of new york will get a total of 867,538.01 mrs sage paying the bulk of it or 635,038.01 and the twenty-nine other legatees the small difference surrogate beckett during the afternoon affirmed the report but the question that wall street asked when the news of the appraisal was flashed over the wires was what has become of the other half of the estate dwigbt uraman of 25 broad street a confidential adviser of mr sage said to dav the figure at which they have au praised the estate is ridiculously low l can hardly believe it to be true

! campaign for the presidency and it was all the harder because it came from a quarter where he expected only kind words and the glad hand instead of what in sporting circles might be called a knockout the attack that has staggered mr bryan came from theodore p shonts president of the Chicago & alton and the clover leaf railroads in a form al statement given to the public and addressed particularly to the railroad men of the country he utterly repudi ated the nebraskan as a presidential candidate and he made that state ment public when the bryanite man agers were sitting at their
